Overcrowd is a roll and shade type of game, where players choose a grid, 14x14/17x17/20x20. The starting player rolls 3 dice and the players shade the board in their liking. Dice roles are ranging from height and the width of the cells, to the number inside the cells, which we call the anchor! You gain a points equal to adjacent anchors, everything that isn't shaded counts as negative points. But be sure to be quick, as players gain rewards if someone finishes before you!
